I have a 96 heritage and would like to know if I could hook my driving lights up to stay on when headlight is on bright?
If so could someone please explain the process?
Your question has been asked many times before and the solution has also been posted, so the answer is somewhere out there, around HDF! The challenge is finding it, unless some kind soul calls by and provides a link or tells us all once again. Hopefully that will happen before too long.....
I really thought that it would have been, being as it is a 96 model but my ability to search these forums is challenging at best plus the devices I use are not the best.
Just hoping someone has a little in-depth information
Found a kit on the HD website but instructions for my model were vague at best.

Even the more experienced ones of us have problems with using 'search', hence my hope that someone who knows will call by soon! On recent canbus bikes it is as simple as getting a dealer to plug his computer in and press a few keys - doesn't involve any wiring. The wiring on our older bikes is quite simple, so just hang in there for a while!

The simplest solution is to disconnect the existing hot wire to the driving lamp switch and wire in a constant hot that is controlled by the ignition switch.
Did that to my Heritage around 10 years ago and still works fine.
1987 Heritage. Bought factory spot light kit. Disregarded instructions and just poked a tiny hole in the rubber grommet where wires go into headlight shell. Ran wire from spots into shell and spliced onto high beam wire. High beam and spots come on at the same time when switched to high beam. Been that way for 31 years. Don't know if yours is the same.
